Chapter 39 Investors
During the winter vacation, I also completed a very important preparatory work, that is, the start-up budget of the newsstand, I inquired about a simple newsstand, the construction cost is only 2,000 yuan, and the key is that the reserve and labor costs of the future source are more.
Once I had a budget, I was able to convince my mom to give me a start-up fund. My main excuse is that due to the lack of funds in our school's literary club, we want to engage in the tertiary industry to "support literature through business", and your son is now the leading figure in the literary club, so naturally we have to do our part, so we need to raise some funds. Of course, with your son's clever mind, he won't let this money go down the drain.
My mother looked at me suspiciously and said, "Xiaoxu, I don't know you yet?" You've been a scribbler since you were a kid. ”
I immediately said, "I'm a little nonsense, a big thing is not a nonsense, you have to let your son give it a try." ”
"Okay, I don't count on you to make money or not, but since your classmates have all contributed, we can't be too far behind. You say, how much does it cost. ”
I hesitated, and to be honest, my mother was suspicious of suddenly asking for such a large sum of money, so I thought about it and said it would cost about a thousand dollars.
My mother really doubted my sincerity, and she questioned me with sharp eyes: "A thousand yuan? What do you want so much money for?"
I said that I was a leading figure in the literary club, so I had to contribute more.
My mother nodded again and again, and the matter was over.
In addition, there was another major discovery during the winter vacation, that is, the little girl in our yard who called me Brother Xiaoxu turned out to be Han Meiling, her mother was my mother's middle school classmate, and her father turned out to be the head of my mother's unit. There are really no books in the world, but there are more inexplicable coincidences in the world, and these coincidences may not be written into books. For example, in my memory, there is no such person as Han Meiling at all, but according to my mother, she and I have childhood friends, and they always have a relationship with each other.
"Xiao Xu, why did you really forget Han Meiling? Why don't you even remember her name? What kind of roller skating did you sneak with her before the college entrance examination? I said you're a little smear, and you still don't admit it?"
When my mother confronted me with such questions, she was obviously wondering if I was so stressed and read so much that I suffered from amnesia at a young age.
The devil knows what's going on, you can't think too much about this question, if you think too much, I'll wonder who I am, am I really Zhou Xu?
Or, that kid from the music department of the Normal School is Zhou Xu? Oh my God, what the hell is going on in my head!
As soon as I returned to school after the holiday, the first important thing was to take the make-up exam, thank God, thanks to Li Yun and her notes, I miraculously passed the make-up exam. As soon as I felt relieved, I concentrated on starting to organize the Wenxin Newsstand, and it was only now that I remembered that I had drunk too much last time, and I had forgotten to talk to those two friends about the treatment.
But then again, at that time, we only cared about celebrating the approval of the newsstand, and there were no specific mundane matters such as labor costs related to operating costs, and it didn't seem very reliable to ask me to say how to share the benefits at that time.
But today, although the issue of money is commonplace, it has to be put on the agenda. Become a shareholder? Engaging in a joint-stock system?
I first thought of solving the problem with the joint-stock system, after all, I only have 1,000 yuan now, and if I want to run the newsstand, I need at least 2,000 yuan. But now it seems that Chen Yifan is about to graduate, he can't buy shares, and I'm afraid he won't be really interested in this kind of small businessman and hawker, so what about Jin Puguang, he may invest on a whim, but he is a rough line person like me, and he definitely has no foresight of future investment returns, so dragging him into this suspected quagmire, will it destroy the innocent friendship of classmates?
As for Cai Xiaohong, she can basically be excluded from investors, why is she working so hard if she has spare money?
What about Li Yun? She said that she would help me, it seems that she still has some savings, Li Yun is now like my wife, if I borrow money from her or let her invest, I will have no "shadow" psychologically, and I will not have any worries.
While I was still taking Li Yun's class notes, I said that I would invite her to watch a movie. Seeing Li Yun again after the Spring Festival, she became more beautiful, and her clothes were more gorgeous, obviously a large distance from other classmates. Although after half a year of edification, many girls in our class are still full of the "earthy temperament" of the countryside, but Li Yun is completely different, she has a good figure, her clothes are relatively fashionable, and wearing it on her makes her feel like she stands out from the crowd.
Li Yun saw that I was still so enthusiastic and happy, and this heartfelt happiness made me feel a little ashamed. Perhaps, I really don't deserve this wholehearted love.
She loves me, but I am far from loving her as much as she loves me.
Li Yun said that she hadn't watched a movie for a long time and asked me what I was going to see. I was dumbfounded, now I don't remember what kind of films were in the early nineties, besides, I remember that there was a movie theater not far from the back door of Hangzhou University, but since an inexplicable church popped up on Wener Road, I am not sure if this movie theater will disappear.
I said I don't know, I haven't read the newspaper in a long time.
Li Yun asked me again, where to watch the movie?
I still shook my head blankly.
Li Yun covered her mouth and smiled, you don't know anything, and you still invite me to watch a movie? Insincere.
